Terminal update work on time
A new extended marshalling area has been built by Red Funnel, which sails from Southampton, at East Cowes.
Fran Collins, Red Funnel's chief executive, said: '˜We are delighted the new marshalling area was finished on time and to such a high standard. It has already reduced queue lengths at check-in and improved embarkation times for customers. It's now possible to group different types of vehicles which makes stowage of traffic on-board easier.'Â
The work was carried out by Stoneham Construction.
